This build of powder works fine from Sudokuhax on DSi - misplaced my Sudokuhaxxed 3DS atm but there's no reason why it shouldn't work.

Pretty much all DS homebrew should work fine in DSi mode if it's compiled with the latest tools & libraries - if that's actually possible, unfortunately there were some things that will need a complete rewrite.

"Works fine"... including DLDI?

Obviously not

I know Roms wont work, but what about stuff like moonshell? Can it read its stuff from the SD?

 

[DarkRioru]

Look below "Patching software(dlditool)".

If you use the DLDI patch from earlier in the page, it does work


Edit: anyway, it does seem that using the touchscreen is completely broken for anything launched through the cia of the homebrew launcher

So, if I patch NeoDS with the DLDI patch it will work?

Potentially....

I DLDI patched halo ds and it didn't initionalize... what does work? I really want halo ds and an ocarina app to work on my n3ds... is there a way to DLDI patch my boot.nds and have it be able to work? that way seems unrealistic...

Ocarina app shouldn't need any DLDI. DLDI is just for reading and writing extra files.


EDIT: Trying to compile ahezard's nds_hb_menu fork on my own, since his releases haven't updated with the newly recompiled default.elf for SD support. Running into an issue where it can't find ds_arm7_ram.specs, and moving said file to obvious locations did nothing. Anyone having better luck, or can share an updated build? (Or bootstrap, since I only care about a single homebrew.)

You can't do that, you need his modified ARM7 or it can't boot as a CIA file

getting a black screen when I boot this app: http://gamebrew.org/wiki/The_Legend_Of_Zelda_Symphony

So uh, further investigation. Even if I make my own DS homebrew into a CIA file instead of launching it with hb menu through this...the touch screen still doesn't work. Shit's broke yo.

Also at least with POWDER it gets stuck on a black screen if the system sleeps

Is it not the same one included in the repository?


EDIT: Thought I had everything sorted out, booted latest rxTools nightly, and installed nds-hb-menu-dsi.cia to NAND. Get that damn "an error has occurred."
Do I need to install the patched TWL_FIRM to NAND, even though I'm using the latest rxTools?

did you try to patch it manually? Read the make_cia script, the patcher is a little unintuitive.

Also here's a CIA of powder with saves working

Trying that CIA, still getting "An error has occurred" after what appears to be a reboot (firmlaunch?)
Is launching it from latest rxTools emuNAND not enough?

You....have to have the modified TWL_FIRM installed on sysnand and emunand and install the cia files to sysnand and emunand
